Figs And Raspberries With Lavender Honey Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk honey, egg yolks, and salt in a large heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water until pale and thick, 3 to 5 minutes. Cool slightly. Whip cream to soft peaks. Whisk into honey mixture. Serve with figs and berries.

Steps:

• Heat honey in a saucepan over medium heat until hot. Stir in lavender. Let cool. Refrigerate, covered, overnight.
• Heat lavender honey over medium heat until heated through. Pour through a fine sieve into a bowl; discard lavender.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add sugar, cream, and salt. Cook, stirring, until mixture just begins to boil. Remove from heat; stir in almonds and flour.
• Working in batches of 6, place teaspoons of batter about 2 1/2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, 9 to 10 minutes.
• Let cookies stand until they can be lifted without breaking, 3 to 4 minutes. Quickly fold and shape as desired. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining batter.

Steps:

• Make crust:
• Pulse together all crust ingredients in a food processor just until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Put tart pan on a baking sheet and press dough evenly onto bottom and up side of tart pan with your fingertips. Chill shell, covered, on baking sheet until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Line shell with a buttered sheet of heavy-duty foil (buttered side down) and fill shell one third of the way up with pie weights.
• Bake (on sheet) until edge is pale golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Carefully remove pie weights and foil, then bake until edge and bottom are golden, about 20 minutes more. Cool completely in pan on a rack.
• Make filling:
• Beat cream cheese in a bowl with a handheld electric mixer at high speed until smooth, then add crème frache and 1 1/2 tablespoons honey and beat until combined well. Spread filling evenly in shell, then top with raspberries. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons honey in a very small saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring constantly, until liquefied, then drizzle over raspberries. Serve with additional melted honey on the side.
